I don’t need any wiggle room, I’m not creating anything new, just incorporating it into my existing strategy, with a new thread and new account.
Anyone can do a Google to see what this Speculative Sentiment Index Strategy is if they want to use it on its own.
It’s a shame you’re the only one playing.
And in the next post…
Looks like familiar sentiment to this former members… latest hangout…
So you really mean Yes…
Hey.
C’mon gents.
You know what:
We’re probably only three of a total of about five or six around these parts that actually trade and that actually know that they’re doing and talking about. The fact that our approaches could not be more different is beside the point. And there for sure is enough crap posted on these forums without us all laying into each other. Pretty sure we could all still learn SOMETHING from each other.
Don’t hate me. Just saying.
I mean no because its not simply using the SSI on its own and its nothing to do with FXCM (apparently its their proprietary tool whatever that means).
And yes, because it has some speculation.
That’s it.
I agree. Surprised he hasn’t tuned into > BRENT bearish not responsible for any loss - because that was where the party was at.
It may indeed work and it may indeed make my trading even more lazier/easier.
I don’t know yet, until I experience it for myself and test it out.
looking fwd to hearing more when you are ready.
Closed a few small gains this week, but got back in again, £197.49 so far.
Current total stands at £6,673.30, a 66.73% gain without taking a hit so far. Some stops were 20-30 pips away from being hit, but that’s as close as it got.
You and your ■■■■■■■ GBP. Makes me sick!!! LOL!!! Multiply by 18!!! LOL!!!
Great job @The_Baller !!
Those stops that were close from being hit, what was the max drawdown in number of pips? 300? 400?
Just learning here. Thank you.
Around the 320 mark with a 350 SL.
hi baller following thread last week try my own approach at this style trading
all ive done is mess around with demos and stp accounts last 2/3 year going to have a bash with this real cash can only invest a grand so well see …

Mate can you extract your history and post it here?
Same goes for me. I wish you all the best!
Nice TP on that AUDUSD trade. My dumb butt held that pair too long.
Hi @The_Baller.
Watching this thread with interest.
I don’t want to be intrusive and praise someone and if it’s not the place, please delete.
Replying to your message, I do know a guy who’s teaching (for free), who’s taking live trades and who’s making and losing money. I think he’s profitable.
His name: James Orr from Decisive Trading.
You can google him and youtube.
Thks
How do you determine your lot size and is your lot size pretty standard across the board on all your trades?
May have missed this reading through the 600+ posts. Apologies if so.
Would like to run example by the group to see if I am getting the gist of this thread. So US/CAD shows hitting a possible resistance level that was set back in Sep 2015. Also, shows possible breakout from an uptrend.
Do you ever set a TP or SL to a 3:1 or 2:1 ratio? I assume ratios aren’t really a concern and aren’t a deciding factor since you use S/R to set those. In the chart below that TP/SL are basically 2/3 which seems super risky.
TIA for the feedback, just trying to learn.
It’s pretty standard for this account, 0.5 Lots.
It’s best to think what would a greedy bugger go in at, then go in at least half that.
